CLEANING YOUR PYROLYTIC OVEN

WFEP917DSD
Pyrolytic cleaning of the oven cavity
The oven has the Pyrolytic self-cleaning function, it
cleans by burning off the spatters and accumulated dirt
and grease from the oven liner, at high temperature. This
process produces ash which can then be wiped out of
the oven cavity. It is recommended you clean your oven
regularly to keep the oven in its best condition.
• Light clean - this is an energy saving cycle that
can be used on a regular basis if the oven is lightly
soiled. Possibly after every 2nd or 3rd roast.
• Normal clean - use this as the regular cycle about
once every 2-3 months.
Before carrying out the Pyrolytic cleaning function
WARNING WARNING
• Clean large deposits, spills or grease from the
oven cavity.
• Please keep small children at a safe distance. The
appliance becomes very hot.
• Never clean non-stick baking trays and tins in the
oven during the pyrolytic cycle. High temperatures
damage the non-stick coating and poisonous gas
is released.
• Pyrolytic cleaning can release fumes that are not
harmful to humans, including infants or persons
with medical conditions, however you are strongly
advised to provide good ventilation during and after
each pyrolytic cleaning process.
• Unlike humans, some birds and reptiles can be
extremely sensitive to the potential fumes emitted
during the pyrolytic cleaning process. It is strongly
advised to remove any pets (especially birds) from
the vicinity of the appliance during and after each
pyrolytic cleaning process.
• Small pets can also be highly sensitive to the
localized temperature changes in the vicinity of all
pyrolytic ovens when the pyrolytic self cleaning
program is in operation.
WARNING
CAUTION
• All accessories must be removed from the oven,
including shelves, trays and side racks.
• During pyrolytic cleaning the air outlet vent above
the door must be kept clear of any obstruction (e.g.
tea towels).
• Do not use your oven to clean miscellaneous items
(e.g. cookware).
• To prevent damage, do not use acids, sprays or
similar cleaning agents.

CLEANING YOUR PYROLYTIC OVEN
TIPS & INFORMATION
IMPORTANT
During the pyrolytic cleaning function, it is advisable
not to use a cooktop if it is fitted above the oven. This
could cause overheating and damage to both appliances.
The cooling fan will operate at an increased speed for
Pyrolytic cleaning and will continue to run until the oven
has cooled down. It is recommended to use the Pyro clean
function regularly to keep the oven in its best condition.
Starting the Pyrolytic cleaning function
WFEP917DSD
• Make sure all accessories are removed from the oven
including shelves, trays and side racks.
• Turn the oven "Function" selector clockwise to select
the "Pyro" position.
• Toggle the selector left or right to select
between a pyrolytic cleaning time of 1:30 hours
(light clean) or 2:30 hours (normal clean) for the
appropriate level of cleaning.
• After 5 seconds from the last change, the oven
will begin heating and the "Remaining time" will
be displayed.
• The pyrolytic cleaning function can be stopped at
any time during the cycle by turning the function
selector counter-clockwise to the "OFF" position.
NOTE: The "Remaining time" does not include cool-down
time for the oven.
During Pyrolytic cleaning
When the temperature in the oven approaches 300˚C,
the door will automatically lock and a padlock symbol
will appear on the display.
After Pyrolytic cleaning
The door will only unlock when the oven has cooled to a
safe temperature. Turning the function off will not unlock
the door.
After cool-down, wipe the ash out of the oven with a
soft damp cloth and warm water. To restore the enamel
shine to more difficult areas, use a damp cloth with
vinegar and detergent.
WARNING
CAUTION
Do not turn off the mains power supply to the oven
during the pyrolytic cleaning cycle. This could damage
the appliance.
